Bah. The manyfold side effects of the prednisone I’m taking for the Crohn’s are coming home to roost.
My face, subtly but surely, is starting to puff up like a melon. And my skin? Strange, fragile, soft and shiny.
I’m self-conscious. To say nothing of the constant eating and its consequences. Bah!
But this, too, shall pass.
I think we need a picture to judge for ourselves ;)
My sister had to take some of that stuff for a few years I think. At least, the side effects were the same. I was too young to really realize that it was a side effect at the time.
Keep strong, and don’t give up!
